miscoding
Writing buggy instructions
Miscoding is coding incorrectly—entering the wrong code, writing faulty programming code, or assigning an erroneous classification.
In medicine and billing, miscoding means applying incorrect diagnostic or procedure codes: The audit revealed systematic miscoding of outpatient visits.
In genetics, miscoding refers to errors in how DNA sequences translate to proteins.
